Vector Databases Made Simple: Your First Step Into Modern Data Storage

What Are Vector Databases? Imagine you're organizing your music collection. Instead of just sorting by artist name or genre, you could organize songs by how they "feel" - grouping similar vibes together. Vector databases work similarly, but with data. A vector database stores information as mathematical representations called vectors. Think of vectors as coordinates that describe the "...

How One Hidden Ignore Instructions Can Hijack Your Enterprise RAG

The Threat: Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines are vulnerable to Indirect Prompt Injection, where malicious instructions hidden in seemingly harmless files (like candidate resumes) hijack the LLM's output. The Blind Spot: Traditional DevSecOps tools (like Snyk or Trivy) scan infrastructure but completely ignore AI artifacts and vector data, leaving the system exposed. The Mechanism: ...

I built KIOKU — an OSS memory system for Claude Code

The Problem I use Claude Code every day. It's an incredible tool — but it has one major weakness. Every new session starts from zero. The project context I explained yesterday? Gone. The design decision we debated for 30 minutes? Forgotten. The tech stack rationale? I'm explaining it again. I got tired of repeating myself, so I built a memory system. KIOKU — Memory for Claude Code ...

Building Authentication From Scratch in Go — No Libraries, No Magic

In Part 2, I had a working REST API with two endpoints. You could create entries and query them. But anyone could hit the API — no login, no tokens, no protection. This post is about the day I decided to build authentication from scratch, and the Go pattern that changed how I think about HTTP servers. The Plan I needed three things: Register — hash a password, save the user Login ...

The Git Log Never Lies

Before reading a single line of code, I check the git log, package manifest, and dependency list. These artifacts reveal whether a project was engineered or assembled. Iterative commits, clean manifests, and tests that actually run consistently predict quality. Single-commit repos, unused dependencies, and README claims that don't match the code predict the opposite. The invisible parts of softwar...

Things to Watch Out For When Creating Components That Relay DOM Events in Blazor

🔰 Introduction If you're building a general-purpose Razor component in Blazor, you've probably wanted to expose the DOM events happening inside it as the component's own event callbacks. The OnClick event is a classic example. So, as a first try, we might implement a MyButton component like this: <button @onclick="InternalOnClick"> Click me </button> @code { ...

Why Personal Development Feels Broken

Why Personal Development Feels Broken For years, I tried to improve myself the “normal” way. Books. Videos. Courses. Podcasts. Every time, it felt like progress.

Best AI Gateway Tools in 2026 for Scalable LLM Applications

When you begin building with large language models, calling providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google directly feels straightforward. One app, one API, one model. That simplicity does not last long. As soon as your application grows, you start needing backup models, cost tracking, logging, and the ability to switch providers without rewriting everything. At that point, direct integrations begin...
